------------------------------------------------------------------

Reproduced this behaviour several times now,and in all cases the socket that 
cassandra is trying to Outbound on has been in stuck in `CLOSE_WAIT`.

I think that suggests that the more common case might be where AWS stops 
tracking the flow for a FINd connection, and an ACK being dropped somewhere 
resulting in a node not fully closing the connection?

Note that I'm seeing this on cassandra 3.11.2, which has the patches from 
CASSANDRA-9630

{{tcp    CLOSE-WAIT 1      322683 10.0.161.40:18254

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Streaming and Messaging
>         Environment: Cassandra 2.1.19 (also reproduced on 3.0.15), running 
> with {{internode_encryption: all}} and the EC2 multi region snitch on Linux 
> 4.13 within the same AWS region. Smallest cluster I've seen the problem on is 
> 12 nodes, reproduces more reliably on 40+ and 300 node clusters consistently 
> reproduce on at least one node in the cluster.

> I've been trying to debug nodes not being able to see each other during 
> longer (~5 minute+) Cassandra restarts in 3.0.x and 2.1.x which can 
> contribute to {{UnavailableExceptions}} during rolling restarts of 3.0.x and 
> 2.1.x clusters for us. I think I finally have a lead. It appears that prior 
> to trunk (with the awesome Netty refactor) we do not set socket connect 
> timeouts on SSL connections (in 2.1.x, 3.0.x, or 3.11.x) nor do we set 
> {{SO_TIMEOUT}} as far as I can tell on outbound connections either. I believe 
> that this means that we could potentially block forever on {{connect}} or 
> {{recv}} syscalls, and we could block forever on the SSL Handshake as well. I 
> think that the OS will protect us somewhat (and that may be what's causing 
> the eventual timeout) but I think that given the right network conditions our 
> {{OutboundTCPConnection}} threads can just be stuck never making any progress 
> until the OS intervenes.
> I have attached some logs of such a network partition during a rolling 
> restart where an old node in the cluster has a completely foobarred 
> {{OutboundTcpConnection}} for ~10 minutes before finally getting a 
> {{java.net.SocketException: Connection timed out (Write failed)}} and 
> immediately successfully reconnecting. I conclude that the old node is the 
> problem because the new node (the one that restarted) is sending ECHOs to the 
> old node, and the old node is sending ECHOs and REQUEST_RESPONSES to the new 
> node's ECHOs, but the new node is never getting the ECHO's. This appears, to 
> me, to indicate that the old node's {{OutboundTcpConnection}} thread is just 
> stuck and can't make any forward progress. By the time we could notice this 
> and slap TRACE logging on, the only thing we see is ~10 minutes later a 
> {{SocketException}} inside {{writeConnected}}'s flush and an immediate 
> recovery. It is interesting to me that the exception happens in 
> {{writeConnected}} and it's a _connection timeout_ (and since we see {{Write 
> failure}} I believe that this can't be a connection reset), because my 
> understanding is that we should have a fully handshaked SSL connection at 
> that point in the code.

> I don't fully understand the attached traceback as it appears we are getting

> only get a connection timeout prior to a send), but I think it's reasonable 
> that we have a timeout configuration issue. I'd like to try to make Cassandra 
> robust to networking issues like this via maybe:
>  # Change the {{SSLSocket}} {{getSocket}} methods to provide connection 
> timeouts of 2s (equivalent to trunk's 
> [timeout|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/11496039fb18bb45407246602e31740c56d28157/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/net/async/NettyFactory.java#L329])
>  # Appropriately set recv timeouts via {{SO_TIMEOUT}}, maybe something like 2 
> minutes (in old versions via 
> [setSoTimeout|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/net/Socket.html#setSoTimeout-int-],
>  in trunk via 
> [SO_TIMEOUT|http://netty.io/4.0/api/io/netty/channel/ChannelOption.html#SO_TIMEOUT]
>  # Since we can't set send timeouts afaik (thanks java) maybe we can have 
> some kind of watchdog that ensures OutboundTcpConnection is making progress 
> in its queue and if it doesn't make any progress for ~30s-1m, forces a 
> disconnect.
> If anyone has insight or suggestions, I'd be grateful. I am going to rule out 
> if this is keepalive duration by setting tcp_keepalive_probes to like 1 and 
> maybe tcp_retries2 to like 8 get more information about the state of the tcp 
> connections the next time this happens. It's a very rare bug and when it does 
> happen I only have 10 minutes to jump on the nodes and fix it before it fixes 
> itself so I'll do my best.
